Communication text used for prediction

The applicant is a Syrian national, who fled Syria to Turkey in June 2014 (when he was 17 years-old) with his family to escape the ongoing civil war there.
It appears that shortly afterwards, he was granted leave to stay in Turkey under “temporary protection”.
In June 2018 he was apprehended near the Greek border in Edirne while trying to leave Turkey illegally.
The present application concerns the applicant’s allegations as to his unlawful deportation to Syria by Turkish authorities following his apprehension in June 2018 in circumstances that had amounted to ill-treatment, the unlawful deprivation of his liberty during that process, and his inability at the material time to access an effective remedy to challenge his unlawful detention and deportation.
The applicant relies on Articles 2, 3, 5 and 13 of the Convention, as well as Article 1 of Protocol No.
7 to the Convention.
According to the latest information in the case file, the applicant is currently in Germany pending the review of his application for refugee status.
